Pakistan’s Role in the Arrest of Kabul Airport Attack Mastermind
Pakistan’s premier intelligence agency, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), has successfully apprehended Mohammad Sharifullah, alias Jafar, the mastermind behind the Abbey Gate attack at Kabul airport in 2021. This operation, conducted near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in Balochistan, has been hailed as a major breakthrough in counterterrorism efforts, not only for Pakistan but also for the United States under President Donald Trump.
The Kabul Airport Attack and Its Mastermind
The Abbey Gate attack at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, which occurred during the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021, was one of the deadliest terrorist incidents in recent history. The attack was carried out by the Islamic State Khorasan Province (IS-KP), an affiliate of ISIS, resulting in the deaths of 13 U.S. service members and over 170 Afghan civilians.
Mohammad Sharifullah, an Afghan national, was identified as the key planner of this devastating attack. He was considered a high-value target (HVT) by multiple international intelligence agencies, including those of the U.S. and its NATO allies.
Pakistan’s Intelligence Success
Pakistan’s ISI and security forces launched a series of high-risk intelligence-based operations (IBOs) to track and capture Sharifullah. His arrest in Balochistan is a significant demonstration of Pakistan’s commitment to counterterrorism and its ability to conduct complex security operations against militant networks.
This development underscores Pakistan’s strategic importance in global counterterrorism efforts, reaffirming its role as a key player in maintaining regional stability.
Trump’s Response :
A Diplomatic Turning Point
President Donald Trump, in his address to a joint session of the U.S. Congress, publicly thanked Pakistan for its cooperation in apprehending Sharifullah. This marked a notable shift in U.S. rhetoric towards Pakistan, which had previously faced criticism from American leadership regarding its alleged support for militant groups.
Trump’s acknowledgment of Pakistan’s efforts could lead to enhanced diplomatic and military cooperation, potentially easing past tensions and opening avenues for improved bilateral relations.
Impact on Pakistan-U.S. Relations
The arrest of Sharifullah has the potential to reshape Pakistan-U.S. relations in a positive direction:\
1. Improved Intelligence Sharing:
This successful operation showcases Pakistan’s intelligence capabilities and could strengthen counterterrorism collaboration between ISI and U.S. agencies like the CIA and FBI.
2. Restoration of Military and Economic Ties :
The U.S. had previously suspended military aid and placed restrictions on Pakistan’s access to defense technology. This breakthrough might lead to a revival of military cooperation, including the resumption of security assistance.
It could also encourage economic incentives, such as increased trade partnerships and financial aid.
3. Strategic Leverage in Afghanistan :
With the U.S. still concerned about Afghanistan’s stability, Pakistan’s role as a regional power broker could gain more recognition.
This could lead to greater U.S. reliance on Pakistan for future peacekeeping and intelligence-gathering operations in Afghanistan and Central Asia.
4. Countering Anti-Pakistan Narratives:
Pakistan has often been accused of harboring terrorists, but this operation reinforces its commitment to fighting extremism.
The arrest could help counter negative Western narratives and restore Pakistan’s image on the global stage.
What Reward Will Pakistan Receive ?
Pakistan’s assistance in this high-profile counterterrorism success raises critical questions about potential rewards from the U.S. under Trump’s administration:
Military and Financial Assistance:
Resumption of Coalition Support Funds (CSF), which were halted during previous administrations.
Potential supply of advanced military equipment.
Economic and Trade Benefits:
Easing of trade restrictions, allowing Pakistani exports better access to U.S. markets.
More investment in Pakistan’s infrastructure projects, including CPEC-related initiatives.
Diplomatic Support :
A more balanced U.S. policy on Kashmir, potentially countering Indian influence in Washington.
Greater U.S. support in international forums, including FATF (Financial Action Task Force) proceedings.
Conclusion :
A Win-Win Situation
Pakistan’s successful intelligence operation and Trump’s public acknowledgment mark a positive breakthrough in Pakistan-U.S. relations. This event reaffirms Pakistan’s role as a key counterterrorism partner while positioning the U.S. as a beneficiary of Pakistan’s intelligence network.
The coming months will determine how Washington rewards Islamabad for its cooperation, but one thing is clear: Pakistan has proven itself once again as a crucial player in global security dynamics.

فوز الـ ISI على ترامب: نقطة تحول في العلاقات بين باكستان والولايات المتحدة
دور باكستان في اعتقال العقل المدبر لهجوم مطار كابول
نجحت وكالة الاستخبارات الباكستانية (ISI) في القبض على محمد شريف الله، المعروف بجعفر، العقل المدبر لهجوم بوابة آبي في مطار كابول عام 2021. وتمت هذه العملية بالقرب من الحدود الباكستانية-الأفغانية في بلوشستان، مما يعتبر اختراقًا كبيرًا في مكافحة الإرهاب ليس فقط لباكستان، بل أيضًا لإدارة الرئيس دونالد ترامب في الولايات المتحدة.
هجوم مطار كابول والعقل المدبر له
كان هجوم بوابة آبي في مطار حامد كرزاي الدولي في كابول، والذي وقع خلال انسحاب الولايات المتحدة الفوضوي من أفغانستان في أغسطس 2021، من أكثر الهجمات الإرهابية دموية. وأدى هذا الهجوم إلى مقتل 13 جنديًا أمريكيًا وأكثر من 170 مدنيًا أفغانيًا.
محمد شريف الله، وهو أفغاني الجنسية، كان العقل المدبر الرئيسي لهذا الهجوم وتم تصنيفه كـ هدف عالي القيمة من قبل وكالات الاستخبارات العالمية.
نجاح الاستخبارات الباكستانية
نفذت القوات الباكستانية عمليات استخباراتية خطيرة لتعقب واعتقال شريف الله. ويؤكد هذا النجاح على التزام باكستان بمكافحة الإرهاب وقدرتها على تنفيذ عمليات أمنية معقدة ضد الشبكات الإرهابية.
رد فعل ترامب : نقطة تحول دبلوماسية
في خطاب أمام الكونغرس الأمريكي، شكر ترامب باكستان علنًا على جهودها، مما يشير إلى تحول كبير في العلاقات بين البلدين، بعد أن كانت باكستان تواجه انتقادات حادة من واشنطن.
تأثير هذه العملية على العلاقات بين باكستان والولايات المتحدة
تعزيز التعاون الاستخباراتي بين ISI والـ CIA.
إمكانية استعادة المساعدات العسكرية والمالية لباكستان.
تحسين صورة باكستان دوليًا كمحارب حقيقي للإرهاب.
ما هو المكافأة المتوقعة لباكستان؟
استئناف التمويل العسكري والدعم المالي.
تحسين التجارة والاستثمارات الأمريكية في باكستان.
دعم دبلوماسي أكبر في القضايا الإقليمية والدولية.
خاتمة: انتصار استراتيجي لباكستان
هذا التطور يمثل نقطة تحول إيجابية في العلاقات بين باكستان والولايات المتحدة، ويؤكد أن باكستان شريك رئيسي في الأمن العالمي.
